Comments: For many years, UCLA has refused to provide information about animals being used in drug experiments such as methamphetamine addiction and neurological experiments. The refusal to disclose public information violates the California Public Records Act (CPRA). UCLA receives a staggering $200 million plus annually of taxpayers money to fund animal experiments.UCLA has a history of violating federal law concerning animal welfare regulations. During a period of April 2012 to July 2013, SAEN uncovered 10 instances of non-compliance and one of serious deviation of the Public Health Service Policy on the Humane Care and Use of Laboratory Animals at UCLA.Please wear walking shoes, wear sun protection and bring water. Dogs are welcome but please make sure they are capable of walking and have water on hand. Leaflets and signs will be provided.

Comments: This event is a week before World Week for Animals in Labs because the Salk Institute is having a huge fundraiser, walk, and "public education" day that includes talks from the researchers and tours of the labs. A lot of people and media will be present so it's a good time to demonstrate! We do not advocate going onto the private property of the torture facility - if you do, you do so at your own risk of any ramifications. We will demonstrate on the public sidewalks and do not plan to block any of the "walk" participants.

To date, she has NOTHING to show for her years of research except a body count of abused animals. We are asking that attendees make one sign each specific to the campaign.
